The Return of Bully: A Closer Look at the Re-Rating

The classic Rockstar adventure game Bully has been re-rated for modern consoles, sparking excitement among fans. However, the fervor around this reveal should be tempered. While the game is considered one of the greatest of its era, with rewarding gameplay and a well-told story, it seems that this re-rating may not be as promising as it initially appears.

The re-rating of Bully is more likely tied to the GTA+ subscription service offered by Rockstar. This premium service is designed to benefit players of GTA Online, offering in-game currency, exclusive content, and access to a library of Rockstar games, including L.A. Noire and Red Dead Redemption. Bully is set to join this library for GTA+ Members, allowing subscribers to download and play the game on their respective platforms.

It appears that Bully will be available in its original form through the GTA+ subscription service. While some fans may have been hoping for a remaster or a fresh update to the game, it is worth noting that Bully remains a fantastic game even without any enhancements. Newer players will still be able to enjoy the game for its engaging gameplay and storytelling, even without a “lick of paint.”

For those who have been eagerly anticipating a remaster of Bully, it seems that they may have to continue playing the waiting game. While this re-rating has brought the game to modern consoles through the GTA+ subscription service, there are no indications of a full remaster or re-release in the near future.

The re-rating of Bully for modern consoles may not be as groundbreaking as some fans had hoped. While the game will become more widely available through the GTA+ subscription service, it will likely be in its original form without any major updates or enhancements. However, this does not diminish the quality of the game itself, and new players will still have the opportunity to experience the charm and excitement of Bully. As for those holding out for a remaster, it seems that they will have to continue being patient for the time being.
